THE SPATIAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THREE WYOMING FUELS

This paper examines the development patterns of Wyoming's petroleum, natural gas, and coal resources. The emphasis is on the location of the resources and their movements. The author suggests, through the use of a limited number of measurements, that the spatial characteristics of Wyoming fuels have displayed a mutable nature. It is posited that an examination of Wyoming's past experience might provide the state with a better understanding of the state's current position as a major fuel supplier. (Author)
